A page from Jason Polan’s The Every Piece of Art in the Museum of Modern Art Book

Now Polan has a new, even more ambitious goal: to draw every person in New York City. He will be working every day and posting the results to his Every Person in New York blog. He’s also posted instructions for how New Yorkers can maximize their own chances of being drawn: just e-mail him with a time and (public) place where you will be standing for two minutes, and you may see your likeness on his blog the same evening.
